Michael “Mike” Stephen Gass of Atlantic City, formerly from Turnersville, NJ, passed away on February 20. He is survived by his sister, Lynda Commale and brother, Ken Gass and his 7 nieces and nephews. He is also survived by a wonderful group of high school friends that cared for him through the good times and the bad times. Mike was a proud graduate of Penn State University. He enjoyed the beach, politics, sports, the casinos and assisting his students in all things science. He loved music and movies, especially Depeche Mode and The Shining. And Mike loved to laugh - that laughter will be greatly missed. Services will be private.
